Here is how you make the applesauce (even if you don't have kids):
1. I used 5 apples
2. Peel the apples, core, and slice them
(You have to get the apple slicer! It is so easy and saves time.)

3. I put them in a vegetable steamer until they are soft
4. Then I just put the softened apples into a food processor until desired consistency
5. You are done. Very simple and very good.
* You can add cinnamon for flavor
She even helps with the dishes. She gets a gold star on her chore chart!
I also made her a little shaky toy. They have them where I take her for Mother's Day Out. It is a cheap toy that they love! I used an empty Clinique container and put some pasta in it. I also hot glued the top on so it won't come off. It works best with a small bottle and especially small Gatorade bottles. They can hold those really easily. You can put about anything that makes noise in there rice, pasta, bells, etc.

Stop being cheap-ass parents and buy your daughter a real toy!
I have been putting applesauce off because I was afraid it would be a lot of work. You have motivated me though. I'll try it next week. What a good idea for a toy. I know that Haley would much rather play with anything other than a toy that we bought for her (i.e. a brush, a pen, tupperware). Go figure.
Dear Anonymous...they love the home-made toys better than anything from the store. Get a life!
Dude- I am laughing at Anonymous. That is awesome!
